How Necessary is a Shoulder Rest?
Playing your violin without a shoulder rest makes it hard for you to grip your
violin properly between your chin and your shoulder: Your wrist will start to drop and your fingers begin to slide.
Holding your violin badly can lead to discomfort, muscle strain and even serious
injury.
Why struggle in discomfort?... Why develop a
bad technique?
The main purpose of a shoulder rest is to make playing more comfortable by not
having to hold your instrument on your shoulder with so narrow a space to hold on to with your chin.
A shoulder rest reduces neck and shoulder strain, makes your violin easier to hold, and helps develop a good
playing technique.
